nVidia in Trouble - Parody

[gsellis]

For those who do not understand what Parody means, it is a twist on some other event... In this case, all of the other ATI is doomed threads. Yes, parody threads are, as a rule, discouraged, but I could not resist. AND I do NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS TRUE. Clear?

*sop*

nVidia is doomed and losing market share!

Intel, ATI and VIA increased their share of the graphics chip market during Q2, largely at the expense of Nvidia, figures from Jon Peddie Research (JPR) reveal.

Yep, nVidia will be closing their doors any day now...

*eop*

Now, can we see no more stupid threads about how ATI or nVidia are on the brink of disaster? They are not.

Umm...maybe I missed something, but I was expecting it to be funny.

 

[blckgrffn]

lol, then you missed the joke

 

[tuteja1986]

lol , anyways Nvidia will be in real trouble if 7800U can't beat R520 when ever they come out. Also if Ati some how bring out a nice over kill $250 graphic card than can beat 6800U very easy.

SiS Lost market share? I did not think it could be possible........

 

[KeepItRed]

Where does it say it's a parody? Looks like normal false information straight from The Inquirer.

Yeah, hard to imagine. But on the upside, XGI is holding it's own, so they should be around for a long time

Sure glad that I had no beverages in my mouth reading this.

The only problem with this is that nVidia posted record profits for Q2 2005, because they had 70% of the performance DX9 market.

So while they lost ground to VIA on the cheapie IGPs, they gained 4% on the more profitable higher end GPUs.

yeah, maybe the op needs to look up parody...

parody

n 1: a composition that imitates somebody's style in a humorous way

2: humorous or satirical mimicry

1. Intel - 43%
2. ATI - 26%
3. nVidia - 17%

Intel Corp. managed to maintain its leading position in the graphics market due to strong sales of chipsets with built-in graphics cores, according to JPR. The company posted 0.6% sequential increase in graphics shipments in Q1 2005 and now commands 43.1% of the market. ATI Technologies sustained its No. 2 position in the first quarter with an 11.3% sequential decline in shipments and reduced to 26.1% share of the total graphics market. NVIDIA Corp. remained on the third spot with a 9.7% sequential decline in shipments and reduced to 17.9% market share. All other graphics products vendors also faced declines in shipments and shrunk market shares.


Additionally, it says

"While the market of DirectX 9.0 graphics components demonstrated sequential growth, underperformance in different segments caused shipments declines at both ATI and NVIDIA, according to previously released data"

Which goes to show you..High End market means squat. There are only a select group of people who purchase very high end card. The middle-tier and lower end (notebooks and onboard chips) are the key areas for these graphics companies. This is proven by the fact that Intel is #1.

All that said. I can't see nVidia going anywhere. As long as they can sustain sales and not overspend...they should be just fine.

It does mean something, you think the profit magain on a $5 northbridge (intel, SiS, VIA) and a $400-$550 add in card are the same?

A decrease in units doesnt neccesarily equate lower total sales or net profit.

May 2, 2005 is a long time ago in finances and besides as I work for neither company my interest is low. To the op - nice parody. :thumbsup:

Thanks for sharing. I thought it was kind of funny.
